The goal of the project is to increase the adaptive capacity of the local communities by strengthening their knowledge of climate change and enhancing their capacity for planning and local governance.

The project will utilize participatory approaches to empower communities on climate-related issues and thereby increase awareness and promote attitude changes in the communities themselves.

Major emphasis during project implementation will be given to collective management of existing common resources in the selected communities.

During project implementation, we will also ensure that communities remain at the center of all processes, from the climate vulnerability assessment, to the planning of mitigation and adaptation measures, and to the governance of adaptation plans and available funds.
